Jointly produced by Le Robert and CLE International, the "Dictionnaire du franÃ§ais" has been specifically designed to meet the needs of non-francophone students and teachers. Based on a set of sound teaching principles it provides 22,000 entries with definitions that use simple words followed by numerous examples.

Helpful notes to indicate gender, number, contracted forms, positions of adjectives etc, are given throughout and 'false friends' relevant to 14 different languages are provided to help students avoid one of the frequent pitfalls in translating.
